NOTIFICATION  
Corrigendum  
The following submission, dated 27 July 2022, is being circulated at the request of the delegation 
of Israel . The corrigendum concerns the notification on domestic support commitments 
(Table  DS:1 and the relevant supporting tables) for the Calendar Year 2020 . 
 
_______________  
 
 
The present corrigendum moves the expenditures  in the amount of USD thousand 8,250  reported 
for poultry under the "Galilee Law" from Supporting Table DS:1 ( Green Box . "6. Decoupled income 
support ") into Supporting Table DS:6 (N on-Exempt Direct Payments) and consequently under 
Supporting Table DS: 7 and DS:4. This modification stems from the changes to the "Galilee Law" 
made in 2018  following  which poultry support is no longer decoupled from production.  The relevant 
affected tables are reproduced below. The modified data is highlighted in bold.
